This paper presents the design of an optimal non-linear position tracking controller for a two-link #exible joint robot manipulator. The controller is designed based on the concept of exact feedback linearization and LQG/LTR techniques. It is shown that the non-linear robot model is feedback lineari

โฆ Synopsis
Presented is a control system design study for a flexible manipulator. The device consists of a DC electric motor drive connected via two flexible links to an end effector for position control. The paper details in tutotrial fashion optimal control designs using both H and H methods with dynamic weighting. The resulting controller is found to be fairly of high order for implementation and so controller order reduction is considered. It is observed that reduction of the controller order beyond a nominal amount cannot be done. A reason for this is postulated using novel perturbation models where it is found that the controller reduction problem is, in this case, a roadblock to practical implementation of the control.

## Abstract After publication, it was determined that this paper contained an error where Equation (36) cannot be solved because it is constrained by the inequality of Equation (30). To overcome this, we here change the mistake into a static output feedback problem. Equation (29) can be rewritten
In this paper the authors present a couple of algorithms, one for the case of analogue devices and one for the case of digital devices, that realize a nonlinear controller performing a second order sliding mode. These algorithms allow the finite time stabilization of uncertain second order nonlinear
